Critical Response

Scott has been called a "significant voice in contemporary women's fiction" in Australia. Marilyn Stasio, reviewing Glory Days in the New York Times Book Review, described Scott's writing as "an introspective voice that's rich in poetry and raw with anguish". Faith Singer was chosen for the Orange Prize’s 50 Essential Reads by Contemporary Writers in 2004. Her work has been shortlisted for the New South Wales Premier's Literary Awards, the Banjo Patterson Award, the New Zealand Book Awards and the Biennial Adelaide Festival Award.

Famous quotes containing the words critical and/or response:

    The principle goal of education in the schools should be creating men and women who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other generations have done; men and women who are creative, inventive and discoverers, who can be critical and verify, and not accept, everything they are offered.
    Jean Piaget (1896–1980)

    There is ... but one response possible from us: Force, Force to the uttermost, Force without stint or limit, the righteous and triumphant Force which shall make Right the law of the world and cast every selfish dominion down in the dust.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
